Film-maker Jemima keeps Diana in the frame

THEY were close friends for years and Jemima Khan clearly maintains a place in her heart for Princess Diana.

Film writer Jemima makes a subtle and touching tribute to Diana in her latest film, a cross-cultural romcom called What’s Love Got To Do With It?

Eagle-eyed viewers may notice that the Princess appears in a framed photograph during an early scene.

The film is described by Jemima, 48, as a love letter to Pakistan, where she lived when she was married to the country’s former Prime Minister, Imran Khan.

During a London screening last week she modestly told friends, including Judge Rinder and TV newsman Robert Peston, ‘Whenever my dad saw a really hideous baby, he’d say, “What a baby”.

‘You see “What a…” works to describe anything. So you can say “What a film” – even if you don’t like it!’

Jemima was at The

Red Sea International Film Festival in Saudi Arabia on

Sharon Stone, who stepped out in a shocking pink feathered outfit, right, that looked like it had been in an accident with a flamingo. Earlier in the week the

US actress sported a billowing pale pink neckhigh gown that some cruel commentators dubbed ‘the jellyfish’.
